IN BRIEF, AND TO THE PoNT.-Dyspepsia is dreadful. Disordered liver is misery. h. digestion is foe to good nature.
 The human digestive apparatus is one of the most complicated and wonderful things in existence. It is easily put out of order.
 Greasy food, tough food, sloppy food, bad cookery, mental worry, late hours, irregular habits, and many other things which ought not to be, have made the American people nation of dyspeptics.
 But Greens August Flower has done a wonderful work in reforming this sad busi- ness and making the American people so healthy that they can enjoy their meals and be happy.
 Remember No happiness without health. But Greens August Flower brings health and happiness to the dyspeptic. Ask your drug gists for bottle. Seventy five cents

Boston Traveller "The capitalist rides around with his horses and carriages. Where are your horses and carriages ?" This IS a socialist conundrum as put to the anarchists of Chicago With as much req son the socialist mightsay, "Thereis Jones the mason, or Smith the carpenter, living in their own houses and having money in the bank. Where are your houses and bank books ?" Everybody is a capitalist who works and saves something from his earnings. A socialist iu these days is generally one who wsnts his beer, but does not want to work for it. The close relation between beer and socialism has yet to be explained.

Celery.

Though native OF the swamp when
cultivated celery needs well drained
land and is very susceptible to injury
from an excess of moisture. Peter
Henderson says that the soil best suit
ed is deep, rich loan. Nothing Is
better than well-drained meadow or
bottom land. If black and peaty 1t
will answer, but it is absolutely neces-
sary that it be free from too much
moisture. The greatest difficulty IN
raising celery is in starting the plants,
the seed being delicate and slow OF
termination. A bed of rich soil should
be prepared aud the seed sown in the
drills and lightly covered. When an
inch high the plants should be thinned
out to an inch or so apart, and when
three or four inches high they are
ready to be transplanted. If the trench
system is to be followed, bitches should
be dug foot wide, two feet deep and
four feet apart. Into the bottom OF
these trenches should be put ten to
twelve inches of well .decayed stable
manure, thoroughly mixed with soil.
In this the plants should be set out a
foot apart, and shaded from the hot
sun when first transplanted. In cul-
tivation care must be taken not to
handle the plants when the dew is on
the leaves, and dirt must not be al
lowed to reach the center Of the plant,
or the stalks will rust and be unfit for
market. When the tallest stalks are
eighteen inches high the banking. up
process must be commenced, but care
must again be taken to keep the earth
from the center of the plant. One
successful grower of the plant states
that he has had good success in
blanching celery by the use OF sawdust
instead of earth in banking up. There
is no danger from rust, and the stalks
are much whittier and tenderer than
when earth is used.
